Band members:
Vocal: 一志 (Isshi), Guitar: 楓弥 (Akiya), Guitar: 真 (Sin), Bass: 女雅 (Nao), Drums: 白水 (Izumi).
They released 1 mini album and a live DVD during the time as CROW, and toured with their 'brother band' Lar~Mia. CROW were known as the "Black feathers" and Lar~Mia the "white feathers". It was during this time that they wrote the popular song Hyakki Yakou.
After being very successful, CROW changed their name, their record label, and left their 'brother band' behind. In 2000, they renamed themselves Kagrra under PS Company records. Kagrra is a deliberate misspelling of the Japanese word 神楽, or "kagura" (a traditional Japanese dance). It means "music of the gods".
They joined teams with Dué le quartz and ASH for the TRIBAL WARNING tour, and together they released the WARNING! single in September 2001.
It was also with this record label that they started working with their album cover designer Fukaya Yoichiro, and his work has become somewhat of a trademark within Kagrra fan communities.
After signing under Columbia records in 2003, Kagrra added a comma (,) after their name to symbolize the dark side of the Chinese Yin Yang.
In 2007, Kagrra, moved from the Columbia Entertainment label, along with fellow PSC artists Miyavi and The GazettE, to their new major label 'King Records'. Along with this move, they took a much more drastic change to image - wearing more 'high fashion' than anything considered 'VK'.
With this change, the band also performed for the first time outside of Asia that Summer, taking stage at America's J-Rock Revolution, followed by PSCompany's group event J-Rock Invasion in Germany at the end of 2007.
Then, in 2008, the band released their first English titled anything, CORE - their fifth album, and the first thing they'd released in nearly a year. Following, they announced their first European one-man tour to start in Sweden, August 2008.
After the demise of Kagrra, vocalist Isshi has started a solo project called “Shiki-project”.
Shin (koto/guitar) and Nao (bass) announced on the 1st of July 2011 that they have started a new support band, PLAYERS, that is signed under PS Company.
Sadly, on July 18th, 2011, vocalist 一志 (Isshi) passed away in his home. The news was announced late Sunday (American time), early Monday (Japan time) on his solo project's website at http://www.shiki-project.com/news.php.

Kagrra Lyrics
Hakai 叩き付ける雨の中 すれ違う奴らを睨みつけながら 壊したくなる衝動 抑え切れない欲望に身を任せ 抱えきれない理性は 音を発…
Ishin 漂えば遥かまで 谺するこの聲よ 貌わりゆく時代の風に翻り 何処までも 響いて 言葉は意味を絶ち 無数に羅列する 届かぬ願…
Kasunda fuyu no mukou ni... この雪が散れば 貴方はまた 遠いあの街に 消えて行く 灯火を眼で追えば その向こうに 薄闇の 影は途絶え 跡形も無く 季…
Kaze 冷たい風頬を過ぎて 思わず耳を塞いだら 遠い場所に忘れて来た 景色が浮かんで 君は今でも 覚えてるのかな あの日告げた約…
Sakebi 風に吹かれ 立ち止まり振り返って 影に埋もれた足跡に そっと手を伸ばし その先を見つめて 溜め息を浮かべたら あの青く晴…
Sayounara 君が欲しくて 君を抱きしめ 君の全てを求めてた あの頃にまた 戻れるのなら 君を離しはしないから 風が運んでくる 春の訪…
Shizuku 何時もと同じく月に翳せば 色放つ不幸の箱 何時もと同じ儚さを抱えて 闇の混じる息を吐く 飾らない言葉で 問うのなれば 人…
Unmei no Ito 薄紅の淡い色の約束 風の音の中に幽か 解れて今途切れた 乾いてる唇にそっと触れて 貴方から貰ったあの温もり 捜してる こ…
Utakata 願いは貴方に降り注ぐ そっと悲しみを越えて いつか再び出会えると 泣いていた貴方の横顔想うよ ゆるり時は流れて 遥か昔…
